It’s Wednesday, McSerial day on McStorytellers and therefore time for the next instalment of our serialisation of J. M. Barrie’s first novel, Better Dead.

This week, it looks like young Andrew Riach is about to become a society man. Not the sort of society he came to London to join, mind you, but a far more sinister organisation going by the name of the Society for Doing Without Some People. Find out more in Chapter Three.

And remember, you can catch up with the two earlier chapters by tapping (or using your cursor to hover over) ​Oor McSerials in the left-hand sidebar and then following the trail.
